Semen analyses in men with asymptomatic genital gonorrhoea. 1982

M Pérez-Plaza, and R S Padrón, and J Más, and H Peralta

Thirty asymptomatic men with gonorrhoea were studied. No significant difference was seen in spermiogram (semen volume, sperm count, motility, velocity and normal morphology) and most of the seminal constituents studied (fructose, ascorbic acid, calcium, sodium, potassium, chlorides and magnesium) between this group of men and those of a normal control group. Citric acid levels were significantly lower in men with gonorrhoea (P less than 0.002). suggesting a non-acute prostatitis. No significant difference was observed in the studies before and after treatment.
